My opinion only but, dry food is what makes most cats fat, dry really
isn't good for cats. It is mostly grains and carbohydrates and cats do
not need either and in fact cannot proccess them very well. When Buddie
was way over weight, she ate ONLY dry all her life, would not have
anything to do with wet food. When it was not an option and she had to
lose weight, I weaned her (much easier than I expected off the dry) and
in about a year and a half or so, she lost 6 pounds.
All the vets I talk to say dry is not good food for cats, it is a
contraversial subject but in my opinion cats are better off without it
completely if that is possible. That said, I have 3 now that just
absolutely will not give it up. I almost had them all off of it and on
the raw, but the minute I quit putting it out KC decided he was not
going to eat, so I had no choice but to give it back to him, and of
course once my others saw KC getting it a few of them decided they
wanted it too. I still intend to wean them off of it, but I can see it
is going to be very difficult, they really get hooked on it.
PS. KC is overweight and so is Cody my 2 big dry eaters.
